Arthur Abraham John Cant d 31 Oct 1937 Isle of Wight

Hoping someone might have access to Isle of Wight newspapers in which the death of Arthur Abraham John Cant on 31 Oct 1937 may be recorded.

Arthur was a relatively young man when he died aged 47.  It is this early death that has me curious and wondered if his death was recorded in any newspapers of the time.

Sadly it looks to have been a suicide. There is an article on The British Newspaper Archive:

They offer three free pages when you sign up, so you should be able to view the article in full.
